Whiting not White

Guess what I have in stock for you my darling readers? Have you noticed a trend with Wednesday posts?

Yes, it's yet another inspirational interior post. For those of you that have been reading my little blog for some time, I'm sure you all know how much I love beautiful white spaces right? :) Well, today I'd like to share with you another white, not white interiors but images from the talented photographer Rachel Whiting.

I love the dark wood furniture against the pale wall colours, the white lamps seems to pop out like a bold colour

The retro feel of these rooms adds a lovely soft glamour

How fun is that orange lighting? the coffee table also addes a lovely splash of red


These two beautiful rooms by the seaside has been feature on a few gorgeous blogs but I love it so much I have to show it again, just in case you missed it! ;)

Simple yet so romantic, candle light dinner anyone?

Sigh... if only my storage room would like this!

Hope you're all having a lovely day, I'm off to reply to all your lovely comments now :)

All these white posts are really changing my mind about how I feel about white rooms. I used to think they were too sterile, but these all seem so soft.

Oh my...I thought loving white so much made me a boring person, but this post suggests otherwise! As so many other comments here say, white looks so fresh and clean. The best part is, when you have a white base, all you have to do is add colorful accessories (pillows, blankets, trinkets) to give it extra flair. That can change based on seasons, your mood, etc. Thanks for the inspiration! :)

Dallas Shaw said...

i didn;t see those photos yet and i love them. thank you so much tina for your constant support. thank you thank you

Courtney said...

Her work is beautiful. There is so much goodness in these photos you selected, it is hard to pick a favorite!

Wanderlusting said...

I love it all - especially anything seaside related (I adore Coastal Living magazine) and anything with a light, muted yellow makes my heart sing!

Curse my tiny four wall apartment!

I am not brave enough to experiment with a lot of white in my life, but I like the little white idea! Love the last two rooms. Want them!!!

Thanks for the face mask suggestion.

I have left you an award, you will probably appreciate, on my blog! Thanks for the inspiration, girl!

These are so inspiring...and also mildly depressing. I look at those and then I look around my dorm room and shudder.

What a dream! I've been wanting to buy all white sheets and bedding for my room. I'm sort of a neat freak and white just symbolizes the cleanliness and simplicity I crave! Oh and thanks so much for your sweet comments :) I heart comments too.

Love the white decor - I always think I'd love something stark and fresh, but instead I accumulate clutter...
